Corrigan Sports Partners With The Baltimore Women's Classic

With our access to endurance athletes in the Baltimore/Washington market, we expect to grow the Baltimore Women’s Classic field beyond the 4,000 participants.

Rash Field is a perfect location for a fun, festive summer race and we look forward to adding our level of professional race management to this great event.”

Tom Amatucci said, “After 11 years of continuous participant growth starting with 300 in 2003 to nearly 4,000 in 2012, it is time to partner with a professional organization to assist the BWC on two fronts: Firstly, to continue the tradition of this historic woman’s race celebrating its 38th consecutive year and secondly, to help fuel the growth of the field with more women of every age, size and athletic ability. We look forward to achieving these goals with our new partner.
